I like the premise, it is very interesting. As for the photographs, some of them were good in my opinion, but there were others that I didn’t like very much (also the formatting of this made them a bit distorted, which might be the main reason why I didn’t like some of them). Provocative images are probably my favourites, not because of the image per se, but because of the concept behind them. I really enjoy the things people do with conceptual art. Also, big TW for chapter three!

The texts show good reflections on photography (like what we see depends on how we look and think as individuals); and there are also other things, like philosophical discussions, that I really enjoyed and made me think

I also liked the additional information in the margins of the pages: Like this? Try these; +google this; + read this or + watch this. It showed it is a well-researched book and it is a nice touch by the author.
